During Wesak, also known as Vesak or Buddha Day, people often prepare and share vegetarian meals, reflecting the Buddhist principle of non-violence towards all living beings. Common foods include rice, fruits, and various vegetable dishes, often offered at temples as a form of merit-making. Sweet treats, such as rice cakes or desserts made with coconut, are also popular during the celebrations. Additionally, some may partake in tea or herbal beverages as part of their observance.
